I use it at least 10 times a day. It's my biggest help at work. > > **Cons**: Sometimes it can be slow, it can even freeze after downloading a lot of data, but that doesn't bother me. I'm still using it, and I will continue to do so. > > Overall, I think its colleague who makes my job easier and whom I use when I struggle with business correspondence. Yes, you heard right, its a friend to me. ----- ### "Google Translate does the job well for automatic Help Centre and Customer Feedback Translation" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 December 2025* | Maritime | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy API integration with Intercom and AppFollow enables automatically refreshed customer help articles to be published and developer responses to customer feedback to be sent in the customer's native language. This is important to ensure our customers can read our help content and feedback replies easily, to improve the effectiveness of both. > > **Cons**: While Google Translate's APIs do an excellent job of translating language, there are certain instances where it would be helpful to have more powerful tools for configuring specific technical terms and words specific to our industry to be auto-translated correctly, so context isn't lost. At times, though Google Translate has provided transparent passthrough of HTML with no issue, we have had issues with content tags not being accepted via API for Intercom, which means that formatting of tables and rich text has been lost via automatic translation. This is an Intercom issue though, not Google. > > Quick, efficient and reasonably priced. I would recommend Google Translate for anyone looking to integrate automation of content or dialogue at a platform level, suitable for public publishing. ----- ### "Google Translate the best app" — 5.0/5 > **ALFREDO** | *15 April 2026* | Warehousing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: one of my favorite apps. I have been using it on my phone for years. easy to use. very efficient for translating into many languages. use every day. > > **Cons**: Nothing negative. Grateful for the opportunity to use the version that is free. It has helped me a lot in my communication. > > Security is important, I use the application that is free and still offers a complete service. Text and File Management is great. ----- ### "Some mistakes, but still operable\!" — 3.0/5 > **Parker** | *2 December 2025* | Music | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked how immersive the application was itself, the way you could input different things inside of it and it spits out a (usually) pretty good translation. > > **Cons**: I've noticed, especially in Spanish translations, that there will some words or phrases that cannot be translated or translates to something completely different than what we were expecting. Sometimes these translations can be completely wrong or just off. about a 6/10 for the translation portions > > It is fast in terms of getting an answer for you, it is free, and it does do what you need it to, about 60-75% of the time. I guess no translation application will be able to utterly decipher a differing language, but for the ease of access and entry for people, this would probably be the one to go with. ----- ### "Speedy translation support for client communication." — 5.0/5 > **Camila** | *3 December 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Users in Camila's small advisory team found Google Translate easy to adopt; basic phrases and financial terms were handled quickly without formal training or extra cost. > > **Cons**: Still, the team remains cautious about security and nuances; sensitive client data is never pasted in, and some complex financial wording still needs manual review. > > For everyday communication, quick checks of foreign reports, and clarifying client emails, the tool reduced reliance on outside translators and sped up basic understanding. ----- Page: 1 / 29\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1013631/google-translate?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1013631/google-translate) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
